During the investigation, Chi-Lan mentioned that the calf was going to be donated to a wolf sanctuary.  There are a few places in Colorado that take in wolves.  I'm throwing caution to the wind and am going to assume that she meant the  Wolf Sanctuary.

First off, I love the place and what they do…but I'm not in love with how the website looks.  It has that 1996/AOL/"cookie-cutter website" feel to it.  It should look much cooler.  I mean…it's about wolves.  Anyway, due to budget cuts, they are not currently giving tours, which is a shame.  When this changes, I'll give you the update since it really is a pretty cool place to check out if you're in, around, or passing through Colorado.


I like wolves myself…. but really, "wolf reiki"??  OMG, I'm still laughing!    http://www.wolfsanctuary.net/06-education/06-01.htm#Programs (towards the bottom)

I can't believe that on youtube and other sites that some people is actually claiming that there is no way that is a spider and that its to box shaped to be one. Some people just want to believe somethings way to much. It's obvious from the first go in real time that its a spider. If you pause right when the spider is going by you can even see the sacks in the web where it is keeping its dinner for later. Some are claiming that they can't see any legs on it, but its obvious that the legs are slightly retracted. All I got to say is if you are an investigator and you cannot tell that is a spider then please hang it up for the sake of rationality.

I only just discovered this web site and FoF yesterday.

 

I'm still enjoying this show but some things are starting to irritate me.

 

Firstly, they need to cut down on the excessively dramatic music. I know it probably functions like a laugh track is to "Two and a Half Men" but occassionally, I want to hear the EVPs without listening to distracting music.

 

One thing that surprised me was the allocation of team members. In a case that involves a possible visual hoax, I wondered why Ben allocated Chi-Lan (the photography expert) to the cattle mutilation case rather than the video footage.

Also, in an earlier episode, Bill made an instant debunk of the footage of the alleged ghost-alien jumping across the road in front of a car. So why didn't he raise the technique of there being two videos merged?

As others pointed out, there is a big difference between gas breaking a thin treated cloth to a cow that has still a thick amount of flesh and untreated leather. I kind of felt they were seriously lazy in that bit. They couldn't stay another night to see how much gas bloating there is 24 hours after death?

 

To some extent, I am disappointed they are covering types of cases that many others have already extensively investigate and can only give half an episode to. eg Cases such as cattle mutilations and the Phoenix Lights (1st episode).
